28 yrs old smoked cigs for 13 year! quit smoking 44 days ago feel awful! when do you feel better? could i have cancer or something i feel real sick!

It will get better: The worst of withdrawal symptoms last about one month. So you should start feeling better. I think the worst is behind you. But remain determined and refuse to be tempted to light up a cigarete again! you will also benefit from visiting your primary care doctor to help you get over it and also make sure that your other systems are working well and you are not suffering from cancer or anything else.
